Chapter 10
In the capital in early summer, the chirping of cicadas is not ear-piercing, and the night is still somewhat cool.

When Lu Hanjiang and his party returned to the yamen, the guards guarding the gate had already changed twice. Under the lights, the majesty of Beizhen Fusi was undoubtedly revealed.

"Lord Lu." The guards on both sides bowed their heads and saluted, but kept their hands holding the sabers.

"Ah."

Lu Hanjiang got off his horse, and the two black-robed chief banners ushered in from under the door. One led his horse, and the other stepped forward and said softly: "Master Wu is already in the lobby, please go quickly, sir."

Wu Qiming, one of Jin Yiwei's two governors, is in charge of the Beizhen governor and is Lu Hanjiang's boss.

This time, there was a lot of commotion in Huashan. Jiang Xiao, who died, was also Wu Qiming's subordinate. He had to come forward because of emotion and reason.

Lu Hanjiang walked three steps in two, entered the lobby, and found that besides the governor Wu Qiming, there were also two old acquaintances here, deputy Qianhu Liu Yishou and deputy Qianhu Ying Wushang.

There are fourteen people in Jinyiwei's thousand households, and the official position is the fifth rank. The so-called deputy thousand households have no limit on the number of people.

Historically, when there was a vacancy in the thousand households, they were selected from among the deputy thousand households. It was rare to be promoted or transferred from outside. Lu Hanjiang also worked as the deputy thousand household for a while.

Seeing them appearing here, Lu Hanjiang probably understood the purpose of Wu Qiming's visit today.

"I've met you, sir." Lu Hanjiang cupped his fists and saluted.

"Well, you're here." Wu Qiming sat in front of the desk, and when he saw Lu Hanjiang coming, he put down the wooden sign in his hand, got up and left his seat.

Lu Hanjiang glanced away, and Jiang Xiao's name was written on the wooden sign, and then looked at the wall behind Wu Qiming, and there were only [-] wooden signs left.

Wu Qiming was not born tall. He is over forty years old and his temples are already gray. Fangzheng's face does not show the arrogance of practicing martial arts, and he speaks softly. Compared with Jin Yiwei, he seems to be more like a civil servant. .

However, Lu Hanjiang knew that when his boss started to fight, it would be a storm.

Literally meaning violent storms, Wu Qiming is good at light kungfu and hidden weapons. He has hidden many deadly gadgets all over his body. Once he makes a move, he will either die or be injured.

"I know about Jiang Xiao's matter. You handled it very well at Huashan." Wu Qiming first gave a flattering compliment.

In fact, Wu Qiming didn't care much about Jiang Xiao's death. Jin Yiwei's backer was the hardest in the whole Jianghu, but there were also many lawless lunatics in the world, so he was used to life and death.

Speaking of which, this is not the first time he has received news of the death of his subordinates, but this time it is Qianhu who died.

"As for the two little children, people from Nansi will take them away from you tomorrow. This matter has been passed on to them, so you don't have to worry about it." Wu Qiming casually finalized the arrangements for the two children of Shang Jidao .

"Understandable."

The Jinyiwei Nanbei Town Fusi can be roughly classified as the South Division is in charge of the interior, and the North Division is in charge of the outside, but sometimes the two divisions will work together to handle the case.

For example, in the Huashan incident, it was the job of Nanzhen Fusi to find out the details of people from all walks of life and collect information.

Then, Wu Qiming handed a blank wooden sign to Lu Hanjiang, and said, "You have worked hard on this journey, take a rest for a few days, and then take charge of the assessment to succeed Qianhu."

Standing behind Lu Hanjiang was Meng Yuan, commander of Jinyiwei. This was not a secret within Jinyiwei. Wu Qiming took good care of him.

In addition to the normal rest and bathing, Jinyiwei did not have detailed regulations on rest or holidays in the regulations. It all depends on how Shangfeng arranges it.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, the evaluation of thousands of households is handled by the Zhenfu envoy, one is for martial arts considerations, and the other is to use this to retain a sense of support and cultivate some cronies.

Now Wu Qiming has handed over the assessment to Lu Hanjiang. Although there are only two people to choose from, Lu Hanjiang can earn a lot of favors.

"Thank you for cultivating."

Wu Qiming patted Lu Hanjiang's shoulder affectionately, gave a few words of encouragement, and left the lobby.

The remaining two deputy Qianhu looked at Lu Hanjiang, apart from being very respectful, there was also deep envy. With the commander of the Jinyiwei as the backing, the sky is just around the corner.

"I met Mr. Lu."

Lu Hanjiang looked at these two people. They were both Jinyiwei who were stationed in the capital, and they met him often on weekdays, and they were familiar with each other.

Lu Hanjiang never doubted their abilities. They were able to achieve the position of Deputy Qianhu, and their basic abilities were not to say how powerful they were, at least they would not be mediocre.

Therefore, the assessment of Jin Yiwei's thousand households mainly focused on one point, that is, the fists were hard enough.

In previous years, the assessment was nothing more than picking some difficult cases, and then let these deputy thousand households handle them. Whoever handled them well would be promoted.

Lu Hanjiang was the same way back then, the difference is that he was the only candidate during his assessment.

After talking about the two of them, Lu Hanjiang said, "Go back first, and come back in two days."

"Yes."

After the two saluted and retreated, Lu Hanjiang turned around and looked at the wooden plaque of Jiang Xiao on the case. He walked over to pick it up, and hung it on the empty space on the wall.

Immediately shaking his head again, he took off the wooden sign and put it back on the desk.

"Old Jiang."

Lu Hanjiang has a house in the capital, and it is not too small to enter and exit three times. No matter how big it is, with his status as a fifth-rank official, he is not qualified to live in it.

He has not yet married a wife, and there is only him, a housekeeper, and a few servants in the courtyard. Among the many colleagues, they are the simplest.

Because of the private agreement with Shang Jidao, Lu Hanjiang naturally couldn't throw the two children to the Jinyiwei Yamen, so he brought them home and temporarily arranged for them to stay for one night.

The next day, the person who picked them up came. He never expected that the person in charge of handing them over would be Qiao Shifang. Lu Hanjiang gasped, feeling his teeth sour.

Qiao Shifang, a native of the capital, an official from Jinyiwei Qianhu, affiliated to the Nanzhen Fusi, is the kind of person who stays in the capital for nothing, and even wants to stay in the capital for things.

This is not the point, Qiao Shifang belongs to the fourth prince.

It might be a little inaccurate to say that, after all, the Fourth Prince is the same kind of person as the original Lu Hanjiang, a heterogeneous within the system, a fanatical spiritual Jianghu person, even if you are a boulder in your chest, he can call you a brother.

But the fact that Qiao Shifang is the fourth prince's friend cannot be faked, and it is not uncommon for two prodigal sons to go to brothels together.

The fourth prince doesn't like literature and loves martial arts. He has no power and doesn't form a party. He wants to go to the rivers and lakes with all his heart. Unfortunately, he can't even leave the capital for many years.

His relationship with Qiao Shifang was also obvious, so it wasn't a taboo.

Lu Hanjiang looked at Qiao Shifang with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. After all, his pretended sophistication is not as good as his real sophistication.

He has always been curious about Shang Jidao's backhand, who dared to entrust his two children to Jin Yiwei. He never thought that there would be a prince. From this point of view, the fourth son of the emperor is not as simple as he appears on the surface.

What made Lu Hanjiang even more helpless was that he was dragged into this thief boat by that bastard Shang Jidao without knowing it.
